I can’t quite figure out July. It didn’t go by quickly, but I can’t believe that it’s over…

We worked a lot this month, and bc of the state of the world we stayed home a lot. We grew our garden and got to eat a lot from there. We spent lots of time with the cats and a lot of time in our only air conditioned room. We tried to keep up our nightly walks, and we did explore a few new places. We saw a #watchercat or two.

July was hot and busy and bustling. But it was good and motivating as well. We read and researched some things we have been thinking about. We ventured out to local restaurants for take out this month more than in the past 6 months or more. At times we were excited about this, at times we were wary. Overall, It feels good to get back to “normal” life and indulge in some of the foods and treats we enjoy, but part of it feels like it’s too soon. IN the end we decided on a healthy balance.

Some of the questions I’ve been asking my self in July are related to the future. How does the current state of the world effect us in the long term? What do we like about this time and what do we wish we could go back to? How do these times change my long term goals? It’s been hard to focus on self improvement bc work has been so busy, but asking these questions helps me to get in the right place for future action. July was a good month for reflection, if not for action.

I wonder if August will action packed?
